AUSTRALIAN TEACHERS - SCHOOL'S OUT!!

FREE WORKSHOP FOR TEACHERS

Is this for you?

​​​This FREE live online workshop is for you if you are exhausted
by the endless hours, emails, marking, planning
and “just one more thing".
​​

 

​​​​FIRST, THE FACTS:

(AITSL Survey : https://www.aitsl.edu.au/resources/national-trends-teacher-workforce#toc-working-hours-26)
 
  • Only 6% of full-time Australian teachers surveyed reported working less than 39 hours/week during term-time
  • Almost one-third reported working between 40 - 49 hours/week
  • 27% reported working 50+ hours/week 
  • For 25% of teachers, a 60+ hour working week was 'the norm'
  • Administrative work almost equalled the amount of time teachers spent on assessment and marking 

 

​​You became a teacher to teach —

not to spend your evenings catching up, your weekends planning,
or your bedtime answering emails.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Yet for many teachers, the working week stretches well beyond 50 hours. And when you’re already giving everything you’ve got, the answer can’t simply be “work harder” or “get better at time management.”
 
 
 
 
This hands-on workshop works with your data to pin-point time leaks and replace them with practical, actionable solutions you can use in the classroom immediately. 
 
Together, we’ll unpack 5 of the most common teacher time-pain points and explore realistic, classroom-tested ways to tackle them. ​
You’ll also receive a 14-page experience-and-evidence-based workbook designed to help you see exactly where your working hours are going — including those sneaky “I’ll just quickly…” hours at home (and yes, even the infamous lying-in-bed-answering-emails hours!).
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
You’ll audit your school hours and your after-hours work, identify where your time is disappearing, and work out which changes could make the biggest difference for you.
 This isn’t a workshop where you leave with a head full of good intentions and another list of things to do. You’ll leave with a practical, ready-to-use resource you can put to work immediately in your classroom — plus specific time-saving actions you can start applying straight away.

... and yes, the timing IS deliberate!

The workshop is being held during the Australian Spring school holidays, so you don’t have to squeeze another professional-development task into an already overloaded term. Instead, you’ll have the space to:
Learn → Audit → Plan → Apply
…so you can head back into the classroom with practical strategies already in place. Because reclaiming some of your time shouldn’t mean lowering your standards, caring less, or becoming a less dedicated teacher.
It means finding smarter ways to spend your precious time — and giving yourself permission to have some of your life back.

DO YOU WANT TO REDUCE THE HOURS TEACHING TAKES -
WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE QUALITY OF YOUR TEACHING?
